Levitt-Safety | How to measure dust in the workplaceA very common mistake that players make is giving away footstep noises to the opposing team. This not only gives opponents a general idea of your location, but it also buys them enough time to rotate or re-strategize. This could also hinder your own game plan, and it will essentially put your whole team in a bad s

Plainly stated, the M249 isn't the best LMG in the game. Compared to the Negev, it really doesn't hold up despite its monstrous stopping power. It also has a smaller magazine size, which really doesn't help its case any. The last, and likely most damaging consideration is its incredibly high price tag, generally making it an unwise buy unless the player truly has funds to sp

Despite not having a decent hold of a gun, many players tend to shoot continuously even when the entire spray is missing. Most of the bullets don’t connect, and in retaliation, the opposing player kills you immediately. Rather than spraying hastily and missing every shot, it’s better to shoot at a slower p

Many players tend to push towards the enemies without any proper plan, especially at the beginning of the round. Pushing can be a good surprise tactic that is most suitable when you have nothing to l

However, with this most recent release, it's easy to wonder - where will the series go next? At first blush, it might seem like the games are exhausting their possibilities when it comes to genre. But have no fear! We're here with some salient ideas of how Senran Kagura can tap into the hottest industry trends to bring its unique brand of titillating action to an even broader audience! Let's strip down and get right into

Any pro Counter-Strike player will tell you that damage, armor penetration, and accuracy make a gun. Lacking practically all of these, the PP-Bizon doesn't have much to offer aside from its outrageous 64 round magazine capacity, which is a lot even for an SMG. Unfortunately, it really doesn't offset the drawbacks here. Having so many bullets to spare isn't much of a benefit when you have such a hard time killing anything with t

Valve’s newest effort at matchmaking assigns players with a value known as the Trust Factor. This is a hidden value that considers several points to help place a player into a match. Valve has made it perfectly clear in this blog post that they will not revealing the specifics that modify this value because they do not want players to alter their behavior in an effort to manipulate the system. This is perfectly fair on their part, as players will go to great lengths to break video games, either just for fun, or to gain a competitive advant

Flashbang is one of the utilities available in the game. When used, it instantly blinds anyone that is looking at it directly for a brief moment. Although it’s a very good tool and can be super effective when used properly, many players blind their teammates, including themselves, instead of blinding the opposing play

These too appear to be straightforward contributors to Trust Factor. Those who are often accused of cheating and no acquitted of the complaint may be best lumped together with similar players. Those who are associated with other accounts that have received bans may also be treated the s

The popularity and stardom that Counter-Strike Global Offensive has garnered over the last decade is nothing short of amazing. A staple in the FPS genre, every gamer has come across or at least heard of the game at some point. Although the game is almost a decade old, StatTrak Factory New players are still joining the game on a regular basis. Embarking a journey in CS:GO is not always easy, and there are a lot of nuances that need to be understood in order to gain success in the g

As for 2012, well, anyone who knows me well knows that I'm a Metro 2033 fanboy, so my most anticipated title is Metro: Last Light . I'm also a huge fan of Yakuza 3 meaning I'm stoked for Yakuza: Dead Souls , not to mention BioShock Infinite , Prey 2 , Alan Wake: Night Springs , Binary Domain , and Operation Raccoon City as my first Resident Evil game, not to mention I have a nice shiny PlayStation Vita First Edition bundle with my name on it. I also plan to play Mass Effect 3 but I'm trying to keep my hype meter low for that

Ryona ambles alone down a dark alley. The shadows around her begin to shift and swirl, and from behind her emerges a cacophony of otherworldly cracking, oozing, and groaning. She turns on a dime, with only a kitchen utensil to defend herself , to be greeted with what can only be described as a sentient orifice with writhing limbs haphazardly connected to its bleeding torso. It twitches and seizes like nothing in nat

December is relax time for me. It's the first month in a while where I play games for fun instead of for review purposes. I plan to journey on in my restart of Skyrim on PC and make time to catch up on a large pile of games, including Saints Row: The Third, Battlefield 3 (PC) and Forza Motorsport 4 while making sure I begin Arkham City, Assassin's Creed Revelations and Uncharte
